Officer Solis was patrolling in the 3000 block of Elgin when he observed Davis
standing in the parking lot of a gas station at the above address holding a
handgun. As Officer Solis entered the parking lot, he witnessed Davis
pointing the handgun at individuals and vehicles in the parking lot.
Officer Solis exited his patrol vehicle and gave Davis verbal commands to drop
his weapon and show his hands. Davis ignored Officer Solis’ commands and
quickly turned and pointed the handgun at the officer. Officer Solis then
discharged his duty weapon more than once. Davis was not struck, dropped
his handgun and surrendered. It was later determined the handgun Davis
pointed at Officer Solis was a plastic replica handgun.

As is customary in HPD officer-involved shooting incidents occurring in the
city limits, this case is being investigated by the HPD Special Investigations
Unit, the Internal Affairs Division and the Harris County District Attorney's
Office.
